First performed in Naples in 1845, Alzira is an eloquent example of the refinement and emotional depth of Verdi's musical language, and yet it remains one of his least-performed works. The dream unfolds against the background of the Spanish conquest of Peru and inspired Verdi to write original melodies and magnificent choruses, to be heard here in a concept performance from the Alto Adige Festival in Dobbiaco.
